Candied Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
I promise that this will be my last candied bacon recipe for a while. I think I went a little overboard. After making a huge batch of candied bacon, I started chopping it up and adding it to all sorts of dishes (starting with the waffle sliders). After adding pieces of bacon to several breakfast recipes, […]
Waffle Sliders With Candied Bacon
I constantly dream about food. Honestly, I think some of my favorite recipes were created in the middle of the night. For example, the idea for these waffle sliders came to me at about 3 o’clock in the morning. I woke up in the middle of the night and started thinking about what I could put in […]
Smoked Salmon Salad With A Lemon-Dill Dressing
Today’s recipe is a super-simple recipe that can be prepared in just a few minutes. I know that several of my recipes can be a little complicated or have many steps, so I wanted to share an easy recipe with simple and fresh ingredients. This smoked salmon salad is topped with a poached egg and […]
Barbecue Chicken Crescent Roll Ring
As I was rifling through the refrigerator gathering the ingredients for today’s recipe, I noticed that half of what I had purchased was missing. I bet you could understand my confusion as I dug through my fridge searching for the chicken and cilantro that I was positive I bought. I distinctively remember paying for the ingredients, but something about my memory […]
Cheesy Yuca Balls with a Chipotle Mayo
These creamy, cheesy yuca balls are stuffed with mozzarella, then fried until they reach a deep golden brown. They are perfect to serve as an appetizer or as a party snack. You can dip them in store-bought sauces or make your own. Today, I decided to serve them with a homemade chipotle mayo. It’s my favorite spicy sauce […]
Smoked Salmon Pâté
I’m going to be honest. I’ve been eating spoonfuls of this Smoked Salmon Pâté all afternoon. I think that’s the dangerous part about making an appetizer or dip – they are so addicting. I found myself saying, “just one more bite” about a million times. This Smoked Salmon Pâté is a great recipe to make […]
Steamed Pork Dumplings with a Scallion Dipping Sauce
One of my fondest memories of living in China was visiting a little hole-in-the-wall dumpling restaurant down the street from where we lived. Since we could read very little Mandarin, each dish that we ordered was a complete surprise. We pointed to a few things on the menu and hoped for the best. This method usually worked well for […]
Spiralized Cucumber Greek Salad
My Spiralizer gets a lot of use making pastas and noodles for hot dishes. It’s a great way to replace pasta to create healthier meals. However, raw spiralized dishes can be just as good. This Greek salad is made with cucumber noodles and topped with tomatoes, red onion, olives, bell peppers, and crumbly feta cheese, then tossed in a light vinaigrette. Each bite […]
Tomato and Feta Stuffed Chicken
Stuffed chicken recipes are the best. The stuffing helps keep the chicken nice and moist while adding tons of flavor. After making my Spiralized Cucumber Greek Salad, I had a bunch of feta cheese and tomatoes left over so I immediately thought about adding it to chicken. These chicken breasts are stuffed with crumbly feta cheese, […]
Guajillo Chili Red Enchilada Sauce
I finally broke down and got a Le Creuset Dutch Oven and I’m in LOVE with it. I’ve been making soups and stews, caramelized onions, shredded pork, and sauces. One of my favorite sauces is this Guajillo Chili Red Enchilada Sauce. After trying lots of different store-bought enchilada sauces, I realized that I never found a favorite. […]
